That depends on how you have Vim configured. See

:help CTRL-V
:help mswin.vim

That particular mapping does have syntax issues, though. For normal
mode I think it would have to be

:nnoremap <C-V> :set paste<CR>"+gP:set nopaste<CR>

but that's off the top of my head and I haven't tested it. Insert
mode is a little trickier. See the help references for more.
